If you love Audi’s AWD system and winter sports in general, then watching this video is going to give you a massive rush.
Sure, let’s ignore for a minute the fact that Audi recycled some footage from this old ‘Power of Quattro’ spot and used it to make this newer and a lot more dynamic video – because if you can get past that (and you should, it’s no big deal), you’ll actually get to enjoy an action-packed spot featuring some of the best winter sports sequences out there.
You’ve got downhill skiing, ski jumping, snowboarding and quite a few other types of winter sports, all rolled into one relatively inspirational video that also touches on Audi’s Quattro system.
The reason we say it’s inspirational is because of the message it delivers. And yes, we’ve heard that sort of thing before…how hard it is to get to the top and how it’s even harder to stay there and all that. But throw in a few awesome sports sequences and terrific camera angles and you’ve got yourself a winner.
As for the cars they used, we can spot the A4 Avant, the A5 Sportback, the A7 Sportback, the Q5 and the SQ5 – all of them having some fun in the snow, as if to let us know how they’re not at all intimidated by the lack of traction.
And you know what? They shouldn’t be intimidated because whether or not we’re relying on Quattro, xDrive, 4MATIC or any other type of all wheel drive system, we’re pretty much covered regardless of conditions – as long as we don’t go out there and purposely sabotage the car’s dynamics.
Overall, the spot itself is very well put together. And as we’ve said before, the camera angles are really cool, which means that you should be able to enjoy this video even if you don’t follow winter sports in general.
